Would one of the high-contrast themes work? Also, compiz has a shortcut key to reverse the video on a window -- Windows key + N. However, that seems to be gone from Unity.

Subject: Re: Grayscale Xorg output
If you use, or start using, compiz there is a color filter plugin that apparently lets you display in grayscale. The forum entry I saw gave no more detail than that.

Is it possible to have X output only a grayscale color palette?
I was watching a show with a guy who is completely color blind and I wondered what X would look like with a high quality grayscale color scheme.
I can spend hours changing all my colors and window themes and blah blah blah, but it seemed like something X or an X driver might be able to do easily...
Any thoughts? I'm using an Intel integrated graphics driver. i915.
